Since i need to get back from CAI in Oct, i was looking at the EK CAI-PEK in J for $920, but then i need to buy another ticket, possibly on AA and pray for SWU...
Definitely take this, great deal, and leave yourself a 23 hour stop on the return in LHR so you can more easily terminate in LHR if you dont plan to go back to CAI. BTW, the lower cost IB fare doesnt seem bookable, it is fixed routing as opposed to MPM and seems to require CAI-MAD/BCN routing, but I dont think IB actually flies that...
